   Well it finally happened ..... Big Al Liebmann actually WORE OUT the memory card for his camera !  He went to the show at Reiglesville, PA this past weekend.. took lots of pictures ... then Wham .... “Card Error” the pictures were GONE !  Hey..... with 16,000+ pictures taken this year I guess we can’t complain about the wear and tear on the memory card. And we thank Big Al for the great job he does with so many shows !

We got this request from the folks at Infineon Raceway so wanted to see if we could help by putting out a call to our visitors.... It would be great if some of you could help.
